Model worker and his little darling

Chapter 23: Let's Go Treasure Hunting

On the way back, Conan looked at Heikichi with a frustrated expression: "Hirakichi-nii, why didn't you wait until I finished speaking before you made your move?"

"What do you mean by that? Let them tell the police themselves."

“Brother Pingqing, let’s go explore 2-chome tomorrow. It’s a house called ‘I-Fuji’. I heard from the people around here that the gloomy house is filled with the remains of demons and monsters, and the boy who lived there was also eaten by a monster.”

Upon hearing this, Heikiri glanced at Conan, who seemed to want to say something but couldn't, and laughed.

"Hahaha... That's not 'I-Fuji,' it's Kudo, the house of Ran's boyfriend from the detective agency."

Upon hearing this, Conan blushed.

"Oh, where did Xiaolan's boyfriend go?"

"I don't know. He hasn't been around for a long time, and nobody knows where he went."

"Oh, isn't Sister Xiaolan very pitiful? Her boyfriend has disappeared, and she can only wait for him silently all by herself."

"That big brother is so mean! He didn't even tell Sister Xiaolan where he was going."

"I think Sister Xiaolan can forget about him and find a man who treats her better to marry and have children."

……

Listening to the three children's innocent words, Conan's face went from flushed to deathly pale.

Pingqing: Hahaha O(n_n)O haha~

Those little devils know quite a lot.

……

【Host, Gin called you~】

Considering the current situation, Pingqing still chose to die.

After sending the children back, Pingqing took out his phone to contact the organization and found that Gin and Vodka had both called him. He immediately called them back.

"Koto-chan~ What do you want from me?"

"What have you been doing?"

Pingqing rambled on for a while, recounting his experiences of the day.

After Gin finished listening, he fell silent.

Pingqing glanced at his phone, then hung up. He hung up on me too.

I also called the director to check on the filming progress and ask if there were any troublemakers.

I learned that everything is going well and the project is nearing completion.

Heiji then sent the director a novel with two male leads, wanting Amuro Tooru to play Zero!!

Anyway, he's a zero, so why did he have to be the troublemaker?

After finishing his business, he put his phone away, took out his computer, and logged into the organization's internal software.

It has all sorts of strange things on it; you can chat, post tasks, search for information, and so on.

These tasks are usually private; anyone who sees them can accept them, and you can even team up to take on tasks. The rewards are extremely high. However, if you accept a task but fail to complete it or fail, you will have to pay a hefty penalty fee.

Sometimes the organization will issue some simple tasks, and then it comes down to speed.

After browsing through the missions, I found that most of them were kidnapping or assassination missions.

Come to think of it, he hasn't received any missions yet; they've all been arranged by Gin.

As for chatting, you can basically find all the members by their code names on it. They are usually automatically deleted from the background one minute after being read. The same goes for text messages on mobile phones. It's the organization's eternal style.

The information above is generally public knowledge; more importantly, you have no chance of knowing anything about it.

After looking around for a while and not finding anything interesting, I turned off the computer and uploaded it to my social media account.

Suddenly, the phone rang again. Pingqing picked it up and his eyes lit up instantly.

"Hello~, Qingqing, have you missed me?"

"Sister, of course I miss you."

"Little Qingqing, you've been in Japan for so long, why didn't you call me? I was so worried about you."

"Sister, I was wrong. I'll definitely call you more often from now on. By the way, is there anything you need, sister?"

"What, can't I talk to you if there's nothing wrong? Your birthday is coming up soon, just tell your sister what you want."

Pingqing was taken aback. So fast? It had already been a year since he returned to Japan.

"I like anything my sister gives me."

Pingqing and Vermouth had a long phone conversation that lasted for over an hour, during which he recounted in detail what had happened recently, before Vermouth finally let him go.

Pingqing laughed out loud at the thought of her upcoming birthday.

For his coming-of-age ceremony, his grandfather gifted him a villa, and Rum gifted him a supercar, which he left in the United States. He also went to Europe with Vermouth to visit his parents and took a trip around the continent.

Gin only gave him two safe houses, which were what he was entitled to. If Gin isn't made to bleed money this time, his name will be written backwards.

So he immediately sent a message to Gin.

【Koto-chan~~~, it's my birthday!】

One minute... ten minutes... one hour...

No response at all.

Pingqing was so angry that he turned off the computer and went to sleep.

……

After sleeping at home for a day, Conan came to visit again.

Ping Qing lay lazily on the sofa: "Conan, what do you need me for?"

“Brother Pingqing, the professor found a treasure map and wants us to go camping and search for treasure. The professor’s car is too small to carry all the stuff, so he wanted to ask Brother Pingqing to come along. It just so happens that you’re free too, Brother Pingqing.”

Seeing Conan's longing look, Heisei pinched Conan's cheek; it felt so good.

"Another treasure hunt? I remember you didn't find anything last time you went treasure hunting. Is it true this time?"

Conan was somewhat speechless: "Professor Agasa said there really is a treasure this time."

"Could it be that Professor Agasa himself left something there for you to find?"

"I don't think so." Conan wasn't entirely sure either, clearly believing it was just an excuse from the professor to let them go out and have fun.

Pingqing thought for a moment, and he seemed to know what it was: "Okay, I'll pick you up from Professor Agasa's house tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Pingqing."

After seeing Conan off, Hirai immediately changed his expression, looking excited.

"Xiao Qi, this is the treasure that Conan's father left him, right?"

【probably. 】

"Hey hey hey-"

Pingqing took out his phone and called Gin. He still had to think of his older brother when it came to such good things.

Gin seemed to have nothing to do, so he answered the call immediately.

"Koto-chan~~, how about going treasure hunting? I know where to find some good stuff~"

Gin was about to hang up, but remembering the maple leaf coins from last time, he asked, "Where are you?"

"I'll send you the location in a bit. Just take the treasure and don't leave any trace. Tomorrow I'm going treasure hunting with a bunch of kids."

Gin stubbed out his cigarette: "Fine!"

After hanging up the phone, Ping Qing smiled like a fox. "Sorry, Junior Detective Team, you're going to have to leave disappointed this time."

The next morning, Heikichi took Conan to Dr. Agasa's house.

Looking at the detective team that had been waiting for so long, wow, kids are just full of energy.

"Good morning, Brother Pingqing. I'm sorry to trouble you this time," Ayumi greeted sweetly.

Conan wants to ride in Hirai's car, Ayumi wants to be with Conan, and Genta and Mitsuhiko want to be with Ayumi.

And so, Pingqing set off with the child and the doctor with their luggage.

Mitsuhiko looked on with longing: "I wonder what kind of treasure we'll find this time."

"I imagine there will be lots of jewelry, then we can buy lots and lots of eel rice." Thinking of this, Genta was already drooling.

Genta really could be an ambassador for promoting eel rice.
